Minot, Dakota, is for the present
the winter terminus of the ST. =. M.
" NJ. Ry. A Deputy United States
Marshal is on the train, and as we
both intend to go further, we pool is
sues and determine to keep company.
We arrive at Minot late; the town is
crowded. and we are glad to find beds
in an unfinished hotel, which certain.
iy did not lack for ventilation, blank
cts and gu:.ny bags doing duty for
doors aud windows. Before sunrise
we are Off for the "front'-our outfit
consisting OF blackboard and pair
of mustangs as nimble as pair of
deer, and not much larger.
Our way at first is through the
Mouse River Valley, three -fourths to
one mile wide and heavily timbered
in the bends. Ranchers occupy every
bend with log house, stable, and hay
stack for winter feed. The soil is
rich, and though stock raising is car
ried on almost exclusively, every
farmer keeping twenty-five TO one
hundred head, the little laad under
cultivation plainly shows the decided
adaptability of the country for grain
Rising. The railroad grade is to our
left, and soon begins to ascend out Of
the valley to the high level beyond.
Four miles from Minot is Gassman's
Coulee, here crossed by the great
railroad trestle, l,600 feet long aud
100 high. The bluffs are steep, but
once on their summit, the land be-
comes level almost Immediately. We
now pass through an entirely unset
tied region, and we feel that there is
nothing overweight or highly col
ored in our statement when we say
that henceforth for twenty-eight
miles is the best farming land we
have ever seen. A black humus,
very deep, without trace of gravel
or stone in its composition the sub
soil yellow clay with reddish cast
on the higher knolls, smooth and suf-
flcienty undulating for good drain
age not sign of alkali is seen on
surface or subsoil.
Twelve miles north is the timhered
DeLacs River, with coal cropping out
in every bluff; to the solth the
"Coteaux," plainly III sight, with fine
land continuing in gentle slopes to
their very SUBMITS. Heavy upland
grass, blue stem, buffalo aud a broad
leaved black grass, of which cattle
are very fond, covers all the country.
This is all Government land, subject
to entry, and now that the railroad is
constructed through its center, pre-
sents every advantage possible to the
farmer and ranchman. The second
siding is sixteen miles west of Minot,
and being in the heartof the country,
with which we were so pleased, at
the suggestion of the United States
Marshal, we named 1t "Goodland."
Here, next year, will certainly be one
of the best towns of the line, for now
that the railroad peuetrates the tract,
settlement must be rapid next spring.

The Sunny Southland.

YAZoo City, Miss, Feb. s, 1887
There are so many pretty things in
this county that All attempt 10 de-
scribe them would be prcposterous.
Here beauty hath its perfect
work even the fiat nose and red Tipped
negro contrasted with the crystal
clearness OF the chime looms up and
looks as attractive as the last rays of
the sun glistening on the sdark out
lines of a cloud. And by-the-way
there are great many that "shine'
without the assistance of any extra
light.
But must not touch upon this col
orcd subject as il is two dark for my
subject. leave it for the wise who
know better than | do what to say,
(if not to do)
7 he prettiest of all the beauties is
the girls, as the darkey would say
"they sure is purity" If they don't
have the peach cheek of the Ken
lucky girl they have the sparkling
eye and if they are not as learned
they are more spirited. There is one
in this place who would charm a
crowd in any social circle and at any
place. But | am again on subject
that / can't do justice with.
The coon conference is now in ses-
sion here with one hundred aud six
iy ministers on the registry. They
are representative class and are
highly honored by everybody. There
are seueral presiding elders among
the whites who direct them in their
work and while here they are enter
tanned entirely by the colored. ]
must add that there is doubtless
silver lining to the colored cloud
which none but the extremely prcju-
diced can fail to see.
Spring time with all of its sonih-
ern grandness is now in the Land
and the very atmosphere is resonant
with, music flowers and merry max
ing of lads and lasses. This combined
with the living green of trees, shrub.
berry and grasses arched by the vault
ed sky of a violet blue makes fel-
low not only "feel good" but do
good"
A dlsc0rd III so much harmony
couldn't hear itself speak. Aud so peace
like river pervades the throngs
at this time aud the sentiment of all
is expressed in the Sanitation of the
angels to the shepherds on the Indian
Hills. "Peace and Good VIII to all
men,"
You must excuse me Mr. Editor
for introducing this colored subject
again but in conversation between
two men on the merits and de-
merits of the culored people few
minutes ago one said that he wanted
the negro among us bucause he was
"shade in the summer and wood in
the winter"
That reminds me that there are
many who have the shade of the cold
sod over them on account of the lux
ury of negro labor when they were
in the bonds of slavery. heard a
'hrewd man say that in his travels
through the states during slavery
that he noticed many more imbeciles
among the southern states and he is
! southern man himself.
